I've ordered a bunch of stuff but not a motor. Besides that Keith is pretty legit. You can also bargain on the side too - done it before.

I have made some deals with Keith (u to $1000 about) and can say he is:
a) trustworthy - he never let me down on anything. I have never received low quality qoods... always perfect communication. b) bit pricey - his prices are not low so you must deal with him many times and... It may happen... even refuse a deal because of price. But only because of price. -------------------- No more replicas... This is evolution... This is SS-four :)

Hey I think I may be the best one to answer this question. I recently purchused a front clip, rear differential, spare 3sgte, recaro seat, tailights, and some steering wheels from Keith at RPMGarage. While he is a great guy he is still a businessman and trust me you will be doing alot of bartering to get a price you can both agree on. It took about 6 weeks to get my stuff delivered to the east coast. Upon opening the crate it appeared everything was i good shape, however closer examination show a tailight was a casulity of the voyage (smashed to peices). There was also a small hole on the side of the crate that I didn't think much about till I realized I was missing a steering wheel. Besides that everything looked awesome the extra motor is super clean and the clip is in great shape to. I have contacted Keith with no response yet but I'm sure we will work something out. Words of advice pay the $400 dollar broker fee and let some else handle all the paper work and legal end (unless your a lawyer with free time). In addition a transcation like this is very risky, Keith only accepts bank drafts so if something goes wrong your out all the money. Plus at some point you will have to send a power of attorney to the broker so he is able to import the shipment into the US (so you must be 18). In the end shipping alone will cost you close to $2000 so your looking at least spending close to $5000. All in all I'm very pleased with how this transaction worked out, although i'm now broke I'm the happy owner of a crap load of rare JDM parts and soon to be GT4. If you have any questions feel free to give me a call, if you don't have my number I'll pm it to you, but I remeber texting you or something like that before. Hope that helps

You are also close enough to me if you ever want to take a drive I'll gladly show you what your getting yourself into. Also note that you will have to pick the car up from a freight terminal they won't deliever it to your house unless you specfically ask for it and that probaly costs alot.

another - he has good communication - but again like said above he is still a businessman. But like in any other case - he ain't your friend to begin with just like any other vendor out there, but at least he tells it like it is.
